Xeo...That bitex0rs major ass.

They shouldn't be able to do that to someone. Or maybe there was someone before you who was so spectacular that they had to hire them right aaway.

Or perhaps, that was a test question, to make sure that you were serious about the job...

Oh no I'm so sorry to hear Xeo, grr!!! I hate it when they say you can have an interview, knowing well enough you want a job and then reject you "ON THE DAY" it's just ridiculous.

I’ve never liked places like, Target, Big W, Kmart etc. They are really lousy jobs, I mean it’s basically your responisibility to let them know you still want to work and if you don’t receive hours off them for a while, you might as well say you don’t have a job there … but I could be wrong, the system could be different there, but that’s how they treat it here. I’ve had friends who have worked for places like that

Just don't get yourself down, keep trying, eventually somewhere will be wanting someone to work for them. If you just give up straight away you might as well not have gone for the interview, you might be missing out on a good opportunity. I wish you all the best though for the other jobs.

You want to try odds, I'll give you odds.

Try scoring in the top 95 percentile for a very difficult multitasking examination for a 911 emergency dispatcher position with the city of Los Angeles. Try going in for the interview two years later (yes, 2 years), only to be told that your odds of getting the job is 1/3 of the total applicants.

There are fifty spots, and 150 applicants. I'm one of those 150. I won't know anything until May, and if I'm in, class won't start until June. Then, I have to pass another examination, and go through a whole other interview process. Try that on for size.

Tough luck on that, but life is just a series of interviews...


At Tower Records, we are always taking applications, but we're not always hiring. There is a difference, that, and people before you might have taken the position before they finished interviewing. Companies should wait until they're done with all the interviews before deciding, but oftentimes they don't. Target's a bitch anyway. Work for Tower. Discounts on CDs, games, and such.

Or, do my job.
